“…Katz and Penneys (1971) described a family with anhidrotic ectodermal dysplasia in whom two identical twins were found to have large numbers of papules on the forehead, cheeks and nasolabial folds which consisted histologically of large sebaceous glands surrounding vellus hair follicles. 'Large and degenerated' sebaceous glands were also reported in patients with this condition by MacKee and Andrews (1924). Dupre, Bonafe and Lamon (1980) reported two brothers who had marked sebaceous hyperplasia beginning in their twenties or late teens.…”

A 23-year-old woman is described with confluent yellowish-white papules and plaques on the face. This was associated with hyperplasia of sebaceous glands. There was no clinical evidence of seborrhoea or anhidrotic ectodermal dysplasia. This is considered to be a separate and distinctive clinical and pathological entity. Case reportMiss H.G., a worker with mentally handicapped children, was 23 years old when she first came to the Royal Free Hospital in October 1980. She had noticed white streaks on the face and chin for about 18 months and thought their appearances were getting worse. There were no other symptoms. She had not noticed any increased tendency to greasiness. She had had no significant illnesses in the past and no one in the family had any similar problems.On examination there were yellowish-white papules and plaques on the chin and cheeks (Fig. i). Jn some areas, especially over the chin, these were confluent and sheet-like, but over the upper part of the face there was a tendency to peri-follicular arrangement (Fig. 2). There was some thinning of the outer part of the eyebrows, but no significant inflammation or scarring of this area. There were no comedones or inflammatory acne lesions. The skin did not feel abnormally greasy. The rest of the skin was normal, as were her hair and nails. She had two missing teeth, peg-shaped upper lateral incisors and some malalignment, but these findings were within normal limits and did not represent part of an ectodermal dysplasia. A full physical examination was unremarkable.The following investigations were performed and were negative or normal: Full blood

“…The occurrence of papules, often simulating milia, is mentioned in descriptions of cases of major anhidrotic ectodermal dysplasia by Goeckermann (1920), MacKee and Andrews (1924), Borggreve andCohen (1940), De Silva (1939) and Touraine (1935). In a case of less marked ectodermal dysplasia, showing hypotrichia and anomaly of the nails, Iladida and Beranger (1950) mentioned numerous milia on a large part of the body.…”

“…The differentiation of these types are not always strict and combinations may occur. Palmar and plantar hyper keratosis, a sign of the hidrotic type, was noted also in the anhidrotic cases of Mac Kee and Andrews [11], Friedman [17] and Klingmueller and Kirchhof [18] and some authors mention abnormal dentition in the hidrotic type and onychai changes in the anhidrotic type. Werbin [19] reported the instance of a familial ectoderm al dysplasia where one son suffered from hvpohidrosis while the mother and daughter did not and the author is against strict separation of the types.…”
